LITTLE ALMA,
wA,, 0uies Along the Potcmnc,"
The sheriff said.


The sheriff said.
Everything was quiet as regards the
little daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. K. Por'
ter Ashe yesterday. and none OF the de-
yelopments Of a sensational character as
was expected by many, came to light.
There were, as usual in such cases, many
wild rumors flying about the street. but
those who knew anything about the
case were of the opinion that there would
be no more developments until Wednes-
day next. Sheriff Kays, being rather
uneasy under the responsibility which
rests ON him while the child is in his
DOS session, was at the Nadeau
House bright and early yesterday morn
ing, aud during the day he was not far
away. At half past 2 o'clock he took
little Alma for drive In company with
Mrs. Il. B. Crocker, the grandmother,
and the nurse. The carriage was close
one, but the party enjoyed the drive
immensely, especially the little cause oil
all the present trouble. They drove
through the western portion of the city,
along Figueroa street and Main and re-
turned at about 5 o'clock in the after
noon. After dinner little Alma was
taken for short walk by Deputy
Sheriff Anderson, in company
with her grandmother and nurse, aud
those who knew who the party consisted
of, gazed mt them in curiosity as they
passed by. Little Alma was not out OF
the sight of either the Sheriff or his dep
uty ali day long. and her meals were
served in her room while the rest OF the
family dined and lunched down stairs.
Sheriff Kays stated that be had made
arrangements so that he could be on the
scene in ten minutes after the first
alarm, in case anything should happen.
He did not anticipate that anything
would happen, however, but he thought
best to make all preparations possible.
As the child is in his possession he in.
tends to carry out the order OF the court
and allow either party to see it at any
time, but he does not propose to lei II
out of his possession.
The cases OF r. Porter and his brother

injury. The passengers complain that
the rails are not kept clean, and that
brush should be carried in front OF the
wheels, or else man should be EN-.

THE PREs1pnNT,s TOUR.


At no time since jackson made his
famous tour through the Southern
States in 1888, has a President met with
such popular ovations as is President
Cleveland in his journey through the
West and South. He has passed through
several of the North Western States
and is now in the South, and he is meet
ing with universal admiration wher-
ever he goes, and he is respected as the
nations chief by all people, regardless
of party affiliations.
He did not stop in Ohio because of
the bitter Gubernatorial fight that is
now in progress i'll the Buckeye State.
He did not want to be made the object
of severe criticism that would necessa-
rily follow from Republican organs, who
would suspect his motives at once and
say that his tour WAS only political
project to boom Powell for Governor.

A WoMAN,s QUESTION.

DO you know you have asked for the costlest thing
Ever made by the Hand above
A woman's heart, and wOmans life,
And a womans wonderful love?
DO You know you have asked for this priceless thing
As a child might ask for a toy,
Demanding what others have died to win,
With the reckless dash OF boy?
You have written my lessons Of duty out
Manllke you have questioned me;
Now stand at the bar of my w0man's soul
Untl 1 shall question thee.
You require your mutton shall always be hot,
Your socks and your shirts shall be whole;
require your heart to be true as Gods stars,
And pure as heaven your soul.
You require a cook FOR your mutton and beef;
require far better thing;
A seamstres3 your wanting for stockings and shirts
look for a man and king,
A king for a beautiful realm called home
And a man that the Maker, Cod
Shall look upon as He ala the first,
And say ut is very good"
am fair aud young, but the rose Will fade
From my soft young cheek one day;
VIII you love me then mid the falling leaves,
As you did mid the bloom Of May?
Is your heart an ocean so strong and deep
may launch my all on Its tde2
A loving woman inds heaven or he'll
On the day She Is made a bride.
/ require all things that are grand and truo,
All things that u man should be;
II you give this all would stake my life
no be all you demand Of me-
If you cannot do this, laundress and cook
You can hire with little to pay;
But a woman's heart and womans life
Arc not to be won that way.

Great excitement has been caused in
the vicinity of Paris, Tex, by the re-
markable recovery Of Mr. j. Il. Corley,
who was so helpless he could not turn
in bed, or raise his head; everybody
said he was dying of Consumption. A
trial bottle of DR.. Kings New Discov-
cry was. sent him. Finding relief, he
bought a large bottle and box of DIR.
Kings New Life Pills; by the time he
had taken two boxes of Pills and two
bottles of the Discovery, he was well
and had gained in flesh thirty-six
pounds.

MANSFIELD, o., Oct. 2O.-[Special. +
A lively time was had in the Office of
the Herald here. Not long since the
entire force struck because the ghost
didn't walk. A new force was imported
from Cincinnati and their experience
was similar. This morning the fore
man, Charles Shirey, was slow about
making up the forms on account of Il
lack of lucre. Editor Harm thought he
was going to jump his job and put an
other man on the FORMS Shirley order
ed the new hand to quit work, when
Harm rushed for revolver but was
prevented from using il by Shirey.
Harm then called the police and wanted
Shirey arrested for being drunk, but he
was sober and the officers refused to
arrest him. Shirey then quit.

A DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.
The Residence of D. L. SPOTS Burned tc
the Ground.

The Residence of D. L. SPOTS Burned to
the Ground.
A very destructive fire occurred this
morning in the northern part OF the
city, it being the residence of Mr.
Daniel l.. SPOTS, No. 239 Cleveland
avenue. The fire originated from the
chimney in the kitchen, catching up in
Che roof. 1t was soon discovered and
The neighbors Hooked in with the gar
den hose but they could not get at it.
Mr.. Walser went to turn i'll the alarm
but it would not work, and this caused
considerable delay. Mr.. Margo finally
sent in the alarm from box -, on the
corner of North and Plum streets.
The fire company had been informed
of the fire before and were on their
way. Arriving ut the house they
found it was all in flames, and the
heavy wind blowing made it impossible
10 save it. Men were busily engaged
in carrying out the goods, but were
soon driven out by the flames.
rhe great delay in getting in the alarm
made it impossible for the tiremen to
gain control of the flames and every
Jhing was consumed with the eXcep-
tiOn of few articles which had been
carried out. The building is total ana
complete loss with all its contents, 1t
was partly covered by insurance. Mr..
SPOTS is a travelling salesman for the
Safe Works, and is now absent from
home. A spark from the fire lodged on
the roof of Mrs. Siddall's house across
the street and soon smoke began issu-
ing from the peak of that roof. The
Gremen however soon put this out. The
residence of Mr. SPOTS was quite a
large house, and would cost to replace
it, about $4,000 or $1,000.

A TERRIBLE FALL.
An Old Man Falls from a Scaffold and is
Probably Fatally Injured.

An Old Man Falls from Scafold and is
Probably Fatally Injured.
Mr.. w. w. Tonney, a man about six
ty-siX years Of age, met with serious ac-
cident this morning about lO:30 o'clock,
that will probably cost his life. Mr..
TOnney is carpenter by trade, and was
at work at frame house on East
Ninth street, close to the Malleable
Iron Works. He was standing on a
scaffold engaged in Notwithstanding
the house, and through some mishap or
other he slipped and fell to the ground,
q distance of twenty-five feet, lighting
on his right side. He was picked
up in an inSensible condition by
some of his fellow-workmen and
placed upon a litter that had
been quickly nailed together, and
some quilts were obtained from neigh
boring houses to cover him. A spring
wagon was procured from Mr.. Henry
Miller and the injured man was placed
in it and taken TO the Union Hotel,
where bir. TOnney boards. DR.. Mar
chand WAS summoned and was soon on
hand. Thinking the man was seriously
hurt he sent for DR.. Fraunfelter who
Immediately came to dress his wounds.
Upon investigation it was found that
his breast bone was broken, his right
ear was considerably cut and one or two
ribs are broken. 1t is also thought
that he is badly injured internally. The
physicians say that there is little hope
of his recovery should inflammation set
in. DR.. Marchand has telegraphed to
his son in Creston, o., to come immedi-
ateIY to Canton.
